Hi Diane,
Thanks for getting in touch!
The hotel is attached to the south side of the Mall, but can be accessed via Guildford Street by car.
There is limited parking available on a first-come-first-served basis, for £10 a day. Alternatively there is plenty of parking at the Mall if we happen to be full that day.
Let us know if you have any other questions - one of the hotel team will be happy to help provide further directions.
Thanks,
Yasmin
